Researcher Revealed Podcast Episode 12

Dr Gemma Clunie joined me for episode 12. She highlights how being connected is an important part of a clinician’s journey in research.

Top 3 Takeaways

1) Location is key: consider who in your organisation will be there to support you and your journey.

2) Clinical academic is only a term; it means different things to different people, be clear what it means to you.

3) Use your clinical professional groups to get connected to other clinicians who are engaged in research.
